James Galizio's Reviews
There's a lot to like about Persona 4: Dancing All Night; unfortunately a lack of cohesive game design hinders the product as a whole. For an MSRP of $50, justifying a purchase is difficult. It's good, but compared to the competition, it flounders.
Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus is an entertaining romp, that will probably engross you for the length of time needed to complete 2 or 3 of the games 4 storylines - but unless you can find yourself lost in the games dizzying amount of fanservice, all that's left to find is a decent beat-em-up, with some surprising character to back it up.
Persona 5 Tactica delivers a solid tactical RPG, that lands just shy of greatness
It's hard to tell who, exactly, Fairy Fencer F: Refrain Chord is for.
While it's certainly not a perfect expansion, Lightfall offers enough additions and changes to be worth it for new and returning players alike
Beyond its unacceptable technical issues, lies one of the most unique takes on the Hunting Action genre in years.
Team Ladybug's latest title is still worth your time, but pales in comparison to their earlier works.
The latest Taiko no Tatsujin delivers what it sells on the tin, but little else.
Utawarerumono is a great, charming series, and one that is more than deserving of a closer look. This remake might not stand the test of time quite as much as its sequels, but don't let that stop you from getting into the series - it's one that I can't recommend enough.
Pyramid and G-Modes deconstruction of the JRPG genre offers a unique take on a fantasy world after a demon threat has been reduced, and manages to stick the landing with its unique mechanics.
Borderlands 3 is a worthy sequel to the much-beloved Borderlands 2, but it desperately needed a few more months in the oven to clear up its myriad technical hurdles.
The port performs well, and I'd wager for 90% of users the state of it will be enough. It's just disappointing that it launched in such a barebones state.
We take a look at Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, and see how it holds up on the Switch.
Ys VIII on Switch manages to offer the best handheld version of the game, but it comes with its own fair share of problems that hold it back.
Taken as a full product, Lost Dimension is one of the most unique Tactical RPGs that I've played in a long time. Although not everything about it is 100% perfect, enough about the game is unique and interesting that it can easily be recommended to both fans and newcomers to the genre.
Overall, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon manages to meet most of the series expectations while still attempting something fairly new. Although there are a few questionable decisions regarding story pacing and team-building; Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon still succeeds at crafting arguably the best Pokemon Mystery Dungeon to date!
Amnesia: Memories shows off its 5 unique stories, and although it's not perfect, it still succeeds as a visual novel.
In the end, The Deadly Tower of Monsters manages to accomplish exactly what it set out to do. It's a fun romp through the uncut commentary of an imaginary B-Movie. If nothing else, if you want a game to kick back and enjoy just for the sheer authentic cheese of it, you could definitely do worse than to give this one a shot.
Zwei: The Ilvard Insurrection might not be amazing like some other Falcom games I've played, but it's still more than worth checking out.
Raiden V is just as good on PlayStation 4, though this rerelease doesn't quite add enough to justify picking the game up a second time.
